Default Problems with P/S/R

Ok, trying to find out what's going on with my motor. Got a 5pt that I rebuilt with ceramic rear bearing, new piston,rod,sleeve and front bearing. Heated it up and broke it in like every other motor. Ran about 1/2 gal breaking it in and then started tuning it for more power. Well got about 8 more tanks on it and the wrist pin clip broke messing up the P/S/R. So bought another P/S/R and tore the motor down and cleaned it all out again and installed the new P/S/R. Broke this one in and got just over a gallon on this one and like clock work the thing died. Took it apart and guess what. Wrist pin clip broke again and ruined another P/S/R. Getting tired of throwing 100.00 P/S/R in this thing every Gallon. I really liked my GO motor but I think I'm about to junk it and go to Nova. Anyone else have issues like this?
